Wiley interview questions

The first step was a one way recorded video interview. It was pitched as: "a great way to get in front of the team before the formal interview process". Sure it is. HR sent a link to a portal where it asks about 5 questions and it records your responses via your webcam to be submitted for review by.....someone. This takes the place of an interview with an actual person - why should they be inconvenienced by real interaction when it's easier to treat you like a number in a cattle call? After submitting the video there was a lot of....nothing, My follow up with HR resulted in the following: 1. Video not yet reviewed it, but will be soon 2. The "hiring leaders" have been out and they're just catching up (they're so darn busy!) 3. After 1 month: There is a new Senior Director in place and we'll have input soon. (I thought the video was "a great way to get in front of the team", then we segued to "hiring leaders", but now it looks like it's really just 1 person?) 4. A few more weeks pass, and I've forgotten about Wiley 5. But then....an email from a different HR staffer, congratulating me for being selected to record a video interview !! You know, the one that I already completed. This was sent in error. Who could take these people seriously ? How many people does it take to screw in a light bulb? 6. And finally after 9 weeks after recording my audition, a rejection email. The email said that they decided not to continue "After a thorough review of your background and skills" Yes, very thorough.

It was a pretty relaxed, standard interview. They asked me questions about my strengths and weaknesses. My writing skills. How I would approach a conflict. The interviewer was really nice.
